Ethereum News Today: Investors Get Exit Signal as Cardano Nears Bull Threshold

Cardano (ADA) appears to be approaching a key price level as analysts highlight a potential $1.20 price target. Recent commentary from Dan Gambardello, a prominent cryptocurrency analyst and long-time Cardano supporter, outlines a strategy for investors to manage their holdings as ADA nears $0.90. Gambardello, known for his strategic market insights, has detailed when he intends to begin selling his ADA holdings, emphasizing the importance of having a clear plan during a bull market phase [1].

Gambardello’s approach is based on a proprietary “risk score” model, which ranges from 0 to 100. According to this framework, a score of 75 is considered a critical threshold for exiting positions. Historical data shows that both Ethereum and Cardano have reached significant turning points when reaching this level. For example, in previous cycles, Ethereum peaked shortly after hitting a 75 risk score, while Cardano entered a volatile phase. Gambardello views this level as a reliable signal for scaling out of ADA, even though the asset has previously climbed beyond 75 into the high-risk range [1].

Currently, ADA sits at a risk score of 36, which Gambardello classifies as a “moderate buy.” This indicates that the market is still in a pre-bull phase. However, he cautions that a rapid shift into higher risk levels is possible. Historical patterns show that Cardano has moved from a low risk score of 34 to a high of 76 within just a few weeks, accompanied by a price surge from $0.09 to nearly $0.59. Investors are advised to expect a similar acceleration and to plan their exits accordingly [1].

For long-term ADA holders, Gambardello highlights that the $1 to $3 range is a strategic point for partial profit-taking. Given that many investors accumulated ADA at much lower prices, securing gains between $1.40 and $2.00 is a logical step. Gambardello himself plans to follow this strategy, locking in profits before the market accelerates. He also anticipates a potential move beyond Cardano’s all-time high of $3.10, set in September 2021. Should ADA break above $3, Gambardello will closely monitor how the price interacts with the risk score, particularly if the level approaches 75 again [1].

Comparisons with Ethereum further support the case for ADA’s potential. Ethereum is currently at a risk score of 49, and in previous cycles, it has climbed to 75 within weeks. Gambardello suggests that a similar burst of momentum could apply to ADA, reinforcing the need for disciplined and structured investment planning. He emphasizes the importance of acting before market conditions shift, rather than waiting for a rally to unfold [1].

Analysts remain cautiously optimistic about ADA’s near-term trajectory. The combination of a favorable risk score and historical price behavior suggests that the asset is entering a phase of potential growth. However, investors are advised to remain prepared for volatility and to follow structured exit strategies as market dynamics evolve [1].
